Hello, Baby.

Hello, Baby. ~~

You're all over the news, people (boys and girls) chasing you
Winning awards, dazzling them with your smile
Secretly you hope it'll just make them stay around awhile
Longer, you yearn.
For acceptance you crave...

You go from glittered runway to red carpet event
Just praying it's time well spent...

Pretending you're happy,
Pretending you're in love,
Pretending you're content...

Hello, baby! You don't need a red carpet to impress me,
I just need one glance into your eyes.
I don't need to hear about your newest car,
I just wanna look at the stars,
Lying next to you.
Hello, baby. I'm right here.

You're the newest scandal in the tabloids tonight.
Did you hear it? Is it too much? Can you breathe?
If you need a place to be free, be free around me.
That girl on your arm, is she real?
Is she better? Is she just publicity?
When are you gonna see, feel, believe...
That the only thing real in this world is between you and me!

Hello, baby! You don't need a red carpet to impress me,
I just need one glance into your eyes.
I don't need to hear about your newest car,
I just wanna look at the stars,
Lying next to you.
Hello, baby. I'm right here.

Tell me, is she real? Does she feel you like I do?
Tell me, how far away from the fame do you wanna run?

Just stop pretending that you're happy, that you're in love, that you're content...
You're not fooling the press.
